NAVIGATION SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with a navigation system which allows you to
listen to the radio, play CDs, and also navigate the vehicle using a
navigation map DVD.
Your system has a large range of features, yet is easy to use. Guidance is
shown on the display screen and is supplemented with voice prompts.
The display screen provides full information for operating the system
through the use of tabbed menus, text screens, and map displays. Screen
selections are made by touching the desired selection on the touch
screen.
DRIVING RESTRICTIONS
In order to prevent the navigation system from distracting the driver,
access to certain functions are restricted when the vehicle is traveling
above 5 MPH. (For example, only QUICK DEST (Destination) items are
available for destination entry. Refer toDestination Programming).
When the vehicle is in motion, the following functions are restricted:
•Scrolling of long lists
•Continuous scrolling of map
